Just exploring Forecast Betting as an option. I wonder how the market is set, particularly on the greyhounds. The prices flick around all over the place. Are punters laying all these forecast prices ? Is Betfair generating them from bookmakers or Betfair win prices ? Are there professional Betfair punters who focus on this ?

They always operate on about 118% and no thought is required but an individual trying to mimic the TAB computer would have his work cut out for him.
